[ after waking up, feeling like crap, having a cup of coffee while holding hands with Tony Stark for a good fifteen minutes, it's time to let go. ]

Hey, since we could all use a little good news, I've got some.
Stark came by to move my body in cafe I'm stuck at in New Amsterdam. When we touched, I got kicked out of the sim. Not for long, but long enough to know what happened. It doesn't work unless you're constantly touching someone outside the sim. I'm back in now.
That means it's possible to break out for a while, even if it's not permanent. I know it's been hard, and we don't have much of a choice but to keep going. It's not much, but this is something we can work with.

[ he'll always remember the time they shared feelings, Tony. ]

[evocation]

[reneger]

outside pulsar
my hoverbike should be right next to me too, faster travel

[evocation]

i don't know if one of us is closer to you
it sounds like he doesn't want to do it anyway

[THAT ASSHOLE]

[voicelog]

and what purpose would that serve?

unless there's a plausible reason behind why i should wake somebody up, i'm not going to do it

[evocation]

maybe something different happens when two of us in the sim touch in real life
also what do you mean a "plausible reason"? do you realize we're all going nuts?

[voicelog]

my priority isn't giving every person who asks in this city a quick reprieve
i know it sucks in there, i was in there not too long ago myself
but i'd rather be using this time to figure out how to get all of you out
so until you can tell me why i should be experimenting with this, then it's gonna be a no from me

[evocation]

so it's not even worth a try?
what's your master plan then?

[voicelog]

it isn't this

even if i was going to try it, i'm going to do it by my own terms

[evocation]

what the hell are your terms anyway?

[ sorry, no. he isn't interested in humoring her with a reply.

not gonna go down that road. it'll just be asking for trouble. ]
